Allowing inbound TCP traffic on port 443 will enable secure communication between the Windows Admin Center client (typically a web browser) in the main office and the Windows Admin Center gateway installed on the server in the branch office, facilitating remote management of the servers in the branch office.

To configure the firewall in the branch office to allow the required inbound connection to the Windows Admin Center gateway, you should allow inbound traffic on port 443 (option A). Port 443 is the default port used for HTTPS traffic, and Windows Admin Center typically uses HTTPS for secure communication. So, the correct answer is: A. 443

A: Windows Admin Center Gateway listens on both ports 443 and 6516 by default. Port 443 is used for HTTPS connections, which encrypts the communication between the client and the gateway. Port 6516 is used for the Windows Remote Management (WinRM) protocol, which is a standard Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)-based, firewall-friendly protocol that allows you to remotely manage Windows-based servers and clients.

You are wrong. 6516 port is used only when WAC installed on Windows 10. When WAC is installed in gateway mode on windows server - 443 port is used.
